In the life of a pastor, there are some Sundays where everything seems to go well. You’re thankful for every Sunday, but there are those memorable, extraordinary ones. For me, yesterday was one of them:
1. The praise team did a great job, despite the fact that our worship leader lost his voice. This is one of the signs that our leaders take to heart the importance of apprenticing.
2. The stage design was off the charts. Our creative team pulled out a home run.
3. We had the largest offering in the history of the church. I spoke on the importance of serving and giving. It was a blessing to see people respond immediately.
4. Here’s the icing on the cake. One of our regular attenders shared that God supernaturally healed her of cancer. She’s been ill since coming to The Bridge. This Sunday, she said, “No more cancer. It’s all gone.”
5. We had our first death at The Bridge a few weeks ago. It was a blessing to see our people at the memorial service. The body of Christ has really stepped in and shown tremendous love and support to the family. Amazing!
5. As soon as I came home, the first thing I did when I walked in the door was pray. For every mountain is followed by a valley and vice versa. Now, my wife is sick. Surprise. Surprise.
I’m expecting God to heal her cold, as well.
Pastor Jones!
